    Randomly found this place while looking for a sweet treat. The crepe was amazing! They had lots of choices and we watched them make it fresh... also makes the whole place smell amazing! They also had a huge selection of gelatos, we tried a scoop of the strawberry cheesecake (which was only $2.99!!!!) and it was some of the best I've had. Definitely enjoyed this experience and will be telling all my friends about this hidden gem. The people working in there (assuming the owners) were super friendly and the lady checked in on us twice to make sure everything was good.

    I stopped in for a milkshake and found Dubai Cheesecake. The cheesecake is rich and creamy, topped with chocolate Dubai delicious chocolate, knafeh and pistachios The cafe also has the candy bar available if you want to try this trending treat. It's located in a lovely shopping center and sure to become a favorite part of the community. They also have milkshakes, sweet and savory crepes. I'll be back for the gelato.

    Lotus Nutella crepe

    Crepes that SLAY!! This crepe is the best I've ever had. I think it's the best dessert in Richmond. This is the Lotus/Nutella crepe minus the strawberries. Rich cookie butter and Nutella with generous chunks of Lotus cookies. White chocolate drizzled over the "just made" crepe with vanilla ice cream on the side. Ima have to go on a diet just from my Gelo Cafe crepe cravings. GO NOW!!! It's in Merchants Walk close to Wistar. We want this place to thrive!!! The guy who works there is probably the owner so he always makes it perfect!!! You'll thank me until you have to go on Weight Watchers. LOL

    This business is a hidden gem! I tried the Pesto Turkey Crepe and it was just perfect. I'm looking forward to getting more meats in the menu!

    Good option for dairy-free / vegan ice cream. The staff were extremely kind and helpful when we…read moretold them we were vegan and even let us try the two options before we selected their dairy-free peppermint patty. When we asked if their cones were vegan, they also brought out their ingredients book to confirm which options we could have (their cake cones and sugar cones are vegan btw lol). Super nice and we really appreciated the extra support. Ambience-wise, there's no seating indoors or outdoors, but it's very clean and bright - definitely well-kept and busy. Overall, pretty good and a thumbs up from me :)

    This is my first time to the Richmond shop. Took the kids up to DC many years ago to try out the…read moreone there before it came to Richmond and remember really liking the brown butter almond brittle. The Richmond shop is bright and airy and the service is very friendly. I like how they're very open to giving you samples and not making you feel bad about it. At least on my trip. My family and I ordered the salted peanut with chocolate flecks (which I thought was good but needed more chocolate), Texas sheet cake (which I think is the dairy free version of the chocolate blackout cake. I didn't realize it was dairy free so I picked it thinking you could taste the chocolate more but I think most of us preferred the chocolate blackout cake) green mint chip (which was very good and my daughter smartly combine this with the chocolate blackout cake. Salted peanut butter would've been good with the CBC as well ) and double dough which was pretty awesome. I'm actually normally not a cookie dough ice cream fan because I prefer the cookie but I thought this was done very well. My only disappointment was that they did not have any kind of coffee flavor, which is my go to for most ice cream stores besides the classic chocolate, peanut butter and mint chip. It would be nice if they had some indoor seating. I feel like there is potential for it. As for parking- it's on Cary so it's a crapshoot.
